Dave and Miranda had a fantastic wedding out in Palm Springs last month.  They both happen to be friends of ours, they started dating the same time Don and I started dating.  They were and well still are part of our scooter club, you will notice a scooter theme going on here. Dave and Miranda are both scientists, which you wouldn’t necessarily guess,  they are two very smart people in life and in love.  They moved out to California a few years ago, sure we miss them but it always gives us a good reason to get out there and visit.  They chose Palm Springs for their wedding and I don’t think it could have suited them more.  Everything was held at the Horizon Hotel, an awesome 50’s style hotel that we had all to ourselves.  In typical California fashion they had a gorgeous sunny day!

A few other super awesome people that made this day possible:

hair/make-up: Chelsey Booth

Cake & Dessert: Palm Springs Pastry Co, Melanie

Planner/Florals: Joyful Weddings & Events, Courtney

boutonnieres: Pixel & Hank you can see their etsy store here.

Caterer: Sherman’s Deli Catering, Gordon ( I am still thinking about the awesome pasta I had that night, soooo good!)

Last but not least Dave and Miranda’s good friend Tim Loftus did the officiating and Andy Rassmussen provided the DJ entertainment.

A few details

I loved the boutonnieres, Miranda found them on Etsy. A very dapper David Good looking group of guys, they dress up so nicely! I always do fun action sequence stuff and there is always one from the sequence that I love on its own. Getting dressed! Yeah, this girl is ready to get hitched! The ladies.  I love the layers the blue sky makes with the white wall and the pool. Cool. Dave waiting for Miranda’s entrance Their dogs Ernie and Little Ann were the ring bearers, Ernie wants to go see his mama here! Hitched! A lively bridal party Scooter socks for the boys.  Yeah, one of the coolest pairs of socks I have seen. The residence AKA bridal suite was so cool we had to do some portraits there. Love this one. Two cool cats. Umm, yeah, of course we had to include the scooter! One of my favorites A few details from the reception I want to go back.  It was gorgeous. mmmm yummy. Miranda and all her cousins, yes all those girls are her cousins aside from a few bridesmaids, did a choreographed dance to “single ladies” It was awesome. The night wouldn’t be complete without some fun dancing pics! I laugh every time I see this one.
